PS – Mike Mullinax it is commonly accepted that of the 4 KISS solo albums Ace Frehley’s is better than the other 3 put together, right? Most of the hours I spent listening to any of them were logged in your house
True. My brother and I alternated buying KISS albums. On the solo ones, he got Ace & Peter and I got Gene & Paul. We did spend many hours listening to those records. Still have them too.
Reminds me of the time I noticed the forecast in my weather app was unseasonably warm for March in Minnesota. Turns out it was set to Minneapolis, Kansas. Likely for a year.
Going from Norton KS to visit my grandparents in Nebraska, we’d make a left turn in Mankato KS. It always freaks me out when I see references to Mankato MN. Clearly some pioneers went from one place to another.

You were my connection to all things KISS. I loved listening to you drum along with them. I need to do “New York Groove” at karoake
That would be cool. I was a bit obsessed with that band. Remember dressing like them for Halloween?
Mike Mullinax Absolutely. Good times.
Yes, absolutely!
Sorry about the outcome of the game! #GoPokes
